The ranking is for Bucks County, Burlington County, Camden County, Chester County, Delaware County, Gloucester County, Montgomery County, and Philadelphia County I noticed that the new rankings looked different than in the past, so I had to go online & get some more info.

montgomery county: Now - more than ever - your credit score matters. - 02/28/08 10:18 PM
Now - more than ever - your credit score matters. ________________________________________________ With the current "credit crunch", your credit score is more important now than it has ever been. You may know your score, but where do you rank? Here is some interesting information I found on www.myfico.com Up to 499 - 2% 500 - 549 - 5% 550 - 599 - 8% 600 - 649 - 12% 650 - 699 - 15% 700 - 749 - 18% 750 - 799 - 27% 800+ - 13% What was most shocking to me is that 40% of people have credit scores of 750+...That's a pleasant surprise.

montgomery county: ALL REAL ESTATE IS LOCAL! - 02/22/08 07:34 PM
ALL REAL ESTATE IS LOCAL! Despite what you're hearing about "Real Estate" and the "Housing Market", one market is drastically different from another. People often speak in national terms, or talk about struggling real estate spots, opposed to focusing locally. Another thing you usually don't hear (but is very true) is that every Real Estate market,whether depreciating, appreciating or staying steady, is good for SOMEBODY, whether its sellers, buyers, investors, first time home buyers, upgraders, downgraders, people selling & moving to another area, etc. Each market is usually good for more than one segment. Here are some statistics to explain the current situation in Montgomery County, PA (source: Trend MLS): 2006: Average Sale Price: $336,793 Units
